The SPDX folks have obsoleted the BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier. Catch
up to that fact and revert to their recommended match of BSD-2-Clause.

layer, for example, to specify that the EFI boot partition should be
mounted at /efi and formatted normally with newfs_msdos rather than
splatted to from /boot/boot1.efifat.
This commit adds only the API for this; actual platform use will come later.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.
a sysctl to determine what firmware is in use. This sysctl does not exist
yet, so the following blocks are in front of the wheels:
- I've provisionally called this "hw.platform" after the equivalent thing
on PPC
- The logic to check the sysctl is short-circuited to always choose BIOS.
There's a comment in the top of the file about how to turn this off.
If IA64 acquired a boot1.efifat-like thing (probably with very few
modifications), the same code could be adapted there.
pc-sysinstall) a replacement for sysinstall in the 9.0 release and beyond.
Currently supported platforms are sparc64, pc98, i386, amd64, powerpc, and
powerpc64. Integration into the build system will occur in the coming
weeks.
Merging with pc-sysinstall will use this code as a frontend, while
temporarily retaining the interactive partition editor here. This work
will be done in parallel with improvements on this code and release
integration.
Thanks to all who have provided testing and comments!
